Pre-Thanksgiving Dinner / French 69

There’s Thanksgiving and then there’s pre-Thanksgiving. This year I wanted to make sure the traditional was balanced with the not so traditional by dining at Plume before the big “Turkey Day”. It’s no secret, this is my “go to” spot in DC when I’m in need of my Paris fix without crossing the pond and Wednesday night proved to be the right thing to do. Here’s the menu inspired by Chef Jakubiec’s brilliance and the wines paired by sommelier Michael Scaffidi, formerly of The French Laundry. Oh, and do not forget to see Ivan – – his skills in the bar are absolutely amazing!!!! Ask for the “French 69” – my must have drink of the evening.
